Book Subscription - Unboxing - Teatime Bookshop


BOOK SUBSCRIPTION


Take a look at the Teatime Bookshop and get 10% off with coupon code KCSBOOKCORNER

I've been receiving books from the Teatime Bookshop for almost a year, after I received a one-year subscription for my birthday. This is hands down, one of the best gifts I've ever received. Not only is it clear that my other half actually listens to me harping on about books all day every day, (he was able to pinpoint the exact box that suited my reading goals) but it's a gift that lasts all year, I get a new present, that I will treasure and enjoy, every month :)

The Teatime Bookshop offers many options to tailor your subscription to your style and preferences. Choose from Crime and Thriller to Historical Fiction, Politics, Romance, and even kids subscriptions for various ages. There's a box for tea lovers and wine lovers. There's even a 'surprise' box that will contain any book from any genre for adventurous book lovers (this is the one I have). Each box contains a bookmark, tea/coffee/hot choc, and yummy biscuits to munch while reading your next book. 

These boxes can be completely tailored to meet your needs. From choosing new or preloved (saving many books from going to landfill), adding a wee tipple to the first box, and length of subscription (or even a one-off!). It's fully customisable which is a huge gold star for me. 

I particularly love the gift hamper, filled with books and bookish goodies for that special someone (or yourself!) who loves to read. 

If subscriptions aren't your thing, worry not! They have a huge online store with bookish gifts ranging from tote bags to journals, socks, mugs, and everything in between. They also, of course, have plenty of books available if you prefer to order something more specific. 

Add this to the fact that they plant a tree for every subscription, and you're on to a winner!

This week, I received my June box and was so excited to open it, they haven't missed yet! Every month I've received a great book, on time, and with my hot drink and biscuits, I know I will have a cosy evening of reading ahead whenever the box arrives! 

On to this month's box. Inside I had a couple of Coffee Bags (which I took away on a weekend trip with the girlies to get my coffee fix each morning!) and a pack of Fruit Shrewsbury Biscuits (bus snack!). A gorgeous card bookmark with "drink coffee read books and be happy" on the front and a matching postcard were also packed in my box. The book I received is one written by Nicola White, called The Burning Boy. Set in Dublin in the 1980s, it's a crime novel that has received great praise. It looks like a great read, intense and gritty. Crime and Thriller is one of my favourite genres and though I've adored not having a clue what I am getting each month, this one feels extra special! Another home run by the Teatime Bookshop! I'll pop a link to my review here once I've finished the book!

They're one of the top subscription boxes in the UK for a reason and I love them. So much so that when my gift runs out, I'll be signing up myself! 

If, by some stroke of luck, you made it to the end of this and thought "Wow, what a great post, I'd love to read more!" you can FOLLOW MY BLOG by clicking the link and subscribing :) I also post bookish content on Instagram. Happy reading!
